re: I want a 300BLK SBR

What is the optimum barrel length to get the most out of a 300 SBR using subsonic rounds with a suppressor?
I want to say that it's 7.5" but it maybe 8.5"
Mine is 10.5".
The powder in this round burns very fast so a longer barrel doesn't benefit the velocity.

Thanks. That's what I wanted to know but didn't know if I phrased it correctly.
You loading any 300 with your Dillon?

I own two .300 Blks and both are made by RedXArms. I've been impressed with their uppers and they are very reasonable. My SBR is 9.5 inches and it's very quiet. I went the trust route, the suppressor manufacturer (local company) assembled my rifle for me and engraved their name on it. It took 4 months to get my paperwork back. I literally brought them a box with all of the components that I wanted and they put it together. That's how you can get exactly what you want in a build. Good luck, they are fun rifles to own and shoot.

Oh yeah, I can get an unlimited supply of .223. Cut it off at the shoulder run it through the sizing die and then trim it to length.
I need to find some more bullets to load for it though. Only thing I've done so far is Hornady a-max 208 gr.
They aren't the cheapest.

125gr Speer TNT for supers
220gr Sierra Matchkings for subs

The powder coated cast lead bullets work well for subs and are pretty cheap.

I also can get all the 223 I want and am seriously considering this route.
I have a question though about the paperwork. I have a pretty good 223 AR and was thinking I want to just build an upper in 300 and swap it out with the 223 lower. Is this "legal"? I understand I still need to get papers on the SBR and suppressor but can I just use the good lower I have?

Yes.
ETA: obviously get the paperwork for the lower back in before assembling a SBR.

Does that BCM 9" upper have a suppressor ready muzzle device on it?
